Something pretty bad happened to her long ago. She clams up, she lost it, she'd rather be alone lying on the bed with those stuffed animals at home. Her old high school friends had all moved away. When they see her now they don't know what to say. They're so different now and she is practically the same. She's the girl who still lives at home she's left out and she's all alone working at the taco stand, fighting with her mom and dad. I can see her sitting in the living room thinking of all of the things that she can't do not as long as she is living underneath their roof She's the girl who still lives at home mom and dad sent her to her room when they saw what she had done now she's just a skeleton. They say she's wasting away, she just stares into space everyday And you know she'd like to move away be on her own and she says it everyday she has plans to move away but you know she's gonna stay that way she's talking to her mom, she needs some help in the kitchen they're watching LA Law and cable television she says it's not so bad, you save a lot of money and she heard what you said but she's staring at nothing.

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
